Which 21" CRT?

I've narrowed it down to these 3 choices...

NEC-Mitsubishi FP2141SB-BK
Viewsonic P225f
Sony CPD-G520P

I can't really find any solid comparison reviews for these monitors out there where they use a tool or piece of software to compare the bunch. I've already read Tomshardware and PCWorld but their reviews aren't that in depth. Also read a couple on Amazon and Epionions and other random places but no definitive answers. So, I figure its time to ask the crowd who would actually be using these monitors...

Btw, I'm not gonna go for an lcd because for the same price of these monitors (500-600) I would only be able to get a 17" LCD that has 15ms response time or a 19" LCD that has 25ms at 1280x1024 resolution. I need at least 1600x1200 which is why I'm going for large CRT.
 
I have the Sony 21" CRT at home. It is simply amazing... Had to get a 19" Samsung LCD for college, but I still have that huge sucker at home... love it to death.

I've got two of those beasts. I'd like an LCD ( i had a blurry 15 sony which i sold) but the cost for a large one of quality is still too rich for my blood.
 
id go with the NEC. its an amazing monitor. just as good as sony who is known for largs CRTs that have great quality and prob costs less
